3164 God's means in the end times....

June 20, 1944: Book 41

God uses the most effective means to win souls during the last days because His love still wants to bring salvation to the weak. Yet people are so far removed from faith that they try to explain even extraordinary working naturally rather than believing in God's strength, and therefore they will also pay little attention to the miracles in the last days, which are likewise only means to revive or strengthen faith. People of the last days are completely secularized, they don't believe in life after death, in a power Which holds them accountable and thus also not in an extraordinary manifestation of this power, they don't believe in the power of prayer, in a connection with the spiritual kingdom, and therefore they cannot be made aware of the last judgment either since they will only mock and reject such references. They believe to be completely enlightened and reject every spiritual conversation, which is why they also know nothing of the phenomena of the last days which are now taking place before their eyes and yet remain without impression. Yet even among these people there are those who have no opinion of their own and are, as it were, followers, and God remembers them and tries to draw their attention to them through all kinds of misfortunes. He informs them of His will through His word and makes them think about the events which move the whole world and clearly reveal the divine will. For if they are given indications of the end times from several sides they will pay attention to their arrival and they will not completely close their ears when God's will is made known to them. There are only a few of them, and yet God also courts these few, for He tries to win every soul in order to spare it a repeated walk on earth. The means God still uses as the last appear so unloving and cruel that it is difficult to present them to people as God's proof of love, and yet they can only be explained by God's great love.... For as soon as the end is imminent there is no more opportunity to mature on this earth, and the fate of souls which cannot be taught and which sin against the eternal deity anew through their will is such an extremely agonizing and merciful one that every saved soul is eternally grateful to its creator for the means His love has used. He sends His messengers to the weak, He tries to persuade the hardened to give up their resistance against Him through extraordinary suffering, and He tries to make the decision easy for those who are still undecided by providing proof through faithful people that faith carries strength within itself.... by letting them accomplish extraordinary things by calling upon His name and by bringing Himself close to people, revealing Himself to them in the word and announcing the end to them. He woos His living creations with all love, which are in danger of completely falling away from Him, and He uses every conceivable means, but He does not force them to comply with His ideas but leaves them complete freedom. Yet they will also have to bear the responsibility if they push away the loving hand which wants to seize them time and again before the end....
